Harold "Hal" Cooper (February 23, 1923 – April 11, 2014) was an American television director and executive producer who worked primarily on sitcoms.
After establishing himself as a pioneer of the Golden Age of Television, Cooper became a regular director on many of the popular and enduring shows of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s.
He was perhaps best known for directing 54 episodes of I Dream of Jeannie between 1966 and 1969 and 126 of the 141 episodes of Maude, on which he also served as executive producer from 1975 through 1978.
His work on the latter series earned Cooper two Emmy Award nominations as well as three nominations from the Directors Guild of America Awards.
